Creating a path to Net-Zero in manufacturing

The world of sustainability is complex to navigate

Let’s face it, sustainability is a complex subject, one that’s not easy to understand. And it’s difficult for companies of any size to create and implement effective sustainability initiatives.
Nearly 50% of companies feel they lack the necessary resources to meet ESG requirements, and that’s not surprising given there are over 575 unique standards for carbon accounting alone.
So, where do you start and prioritise the limited resources you have?

Achieving net-zero by 2050 is not straight-forward

NLCo Yellow Light Hatch

Only 11% of emissions come directly from the manufacturing process, so a manufacturer’s whole value chain needs to be assessed.

The near-term goal of reducing emissions by 50% by 2030 means companies will need to start a far-reaching review of product design, supply chains, and product circularity.

Why REDUCEit! Matters

NLCo REDUCEit White Logo

To increase your confidence in sustainability standing.

REDUCEit! Incorporating COSIRI enables companies to formally assess their current level of sustainability strategy and focus.
The assessments provide companies with invaluable insights into lacking areas and what can be done to improve their sustainability performance and their supply chain standing.

Why did we choose the periodic element 14 for REDUCEit?  Element number 14 is Silocone. Silicone can be recycled multiple times without losing much of its structural integrity.
